Compliance and Data Compliance Officer (f/m/x)

HEY THERE!

We are Mercedes-Benz.io. Our mission is to ignite and build the digital solutions for Mercedes-Benz by forming a tribe of digital enthusiasts that drive Mercedes-Benz digital future.

We offer you a hybrid setup! You can choose to work from our Stuttgart office or remotely from any location in Germany. As our tribe is our beating heart, we regularly bring MB.ioneers together for team events, gatherings and moments that matter.

We don’t care about your shoes, as long as you are wearing the right attitude. At Mercedes-Benz.io we walk the talk and make things happen. We do not digitize for the sake of being digital but for a better tomorrow for our customers. That’s not our job; it’s our passion.
